Upon the gift's activation, colorless blurry wisps begin to appear in the vicinity of the target with a steadily-increasing rate. At first, they lazily and laterally rotate around the target - with the rotation's direction being random when it comes to each wisp - but their speeds and sizes grow as more wisps emerge. The wisps turn darker the larger they become.
If the gift is used to replace limbs or organs that are normally visible to observers, upon the gift's successful deactivation all wisps burst into roiling swarms of black, ever-shifting glyphs that quickly convene at the locations of the limbs or organs being replaced and build up inky-black and wispy replacements out of themselves until no more glyphs remain.
If the gift is used to replace limbs or organs that are normally not visible to observers, upon the gift's successful deactivation all wisps coalesce into a single swarm with a red sheen which then flies into the target's body and disappears.
If the gift is used to replace some limbs or organs that are normally visible to observers as well as some limbs or organs that are normally not visible to observers, both finalization behaviors described above happen in direct proportion to how many of each are slated to be replaced. If the gift user is interrupted midway through the process, all existing wisps disappear in unison.
Exert your Mind and spend a minute. Select a Living target within arm's reach. This Effect cannot be used unless you intend to replace missing limbs or organs of the target and, if the target is not yourself, the Confluence of Glyphs approves of the target. Approval requires the target to be bound by the Guile-Cloven Pledge oath. Select up to four Battle Scars on your target to treat.
The treated Battle Scars heals as you finish activating this Effect. If used on a Battle Scar caused by an Unstabilized Injury, that Injury is Stabilized.
Healing a Battle Scar in this way leaves behind inky-black, wispy, yet perfectly functional replacements of the selected missing limbs or organs on the target which cannot be healed.

Audiences or mobs with a singular focus count as one target. Roll Charisma + Performance at Difficulty 6. All affected targets may resist by rolling Mind at Difficulty 7.
If you succeed, the targets will keep their full attention focused on you for Contested Outcome in Rounds. They will automatically fail any rolls related to noticing anything other than you.
If you pass from their perception and they are unable to pursue you, the Effect ends. If they can follow you, they must do so for 2 Rounds or the Effect will end. The Effect ends early if the target is Injured or violence occurs nearby.
This does not affect the target’s opinion of you or their mood, and they may take any Actions while affected (including attacking), as long as that action centers on you. Fascinated targets cannot Concentrate.
The aristocrat knows a ritual that allows them to rent the best version of any item. They set $10,000 worth of cash on fire and place the item to be upgraded in the fire as well. While in the flame, the item morphs into a high-end version of itself. After a while, it reverts.

The Witch is a master herbalist and can cure any number of illnesses and diseases with her special potions. She goes into the wilderness to find the proper set of herbs. Once she has what she's looking for, she mixes them together and boils the concoction. Steam rises from the mixture, twisting into recognizable shapes such as animals and spirits. The whole process takes about fifteen minutes, after which the patient must drink the entire mixture. They are immediately cured.
The proper preparation varies from person to person, so a single batch cannot be used to treat multiple people.
